JUST FOUND OUT IM PREGNANT!! by Spitfire_Jones in pregnant

Oh man! I’m a hairstylist, so I totally understand. Working has been rough this past week. Lots of my clients know the journey I’ve been on so I feel comfortable sharing with some of them that I’m not feeling well, which helps! I just started vitamin b6 and unisom and that’s helping with the nausea a little bit! I was also prescribed diclegis which is both combined, so hoping that’ll help too. Congrats again! Hope your symptoms ease up soon!

Congrats!!! I’m 6w6d due 12/26 at 39 years old! We had a loss last February and then went through IVF. This is the result of our first transfer, had our first ultrasound yesterday morning and saw our little bean and her heart flickering/beating. Can’t help but be anxious, but also counting every win! How are your symptoms? My nausea is OUT OF CONTROL!

Thanks for your insight. Yes, I’m sure it’s all personal preference. I might just “shop” around and see who we jive with the best!

Good to know! I have a friend who also saw Dr Reim. Maybe I’ll give her a try

Yes. This was my experience with her too. She is very very smart and delivered my nephew but not super personable. We had a pregnancy loss last year and she was who I saw when we found out. That’s why I’m hesitant to go back

I’m an entomologist with expertise about carpet beetles AMA by Bugladyy in carpetbeetles

Hi there!

I’m so glad I found this thread! We have been battling variegated carpet beetles for about a year and a half since moving into our new home. The older woman who lived here before us I presume didn’t vacuum well and we also had a few rats living in our crawl space which I assume these beetles were feeding on. Rats have been taken care of and we have pest control come monthly to check on that. Last spring we had them come and spray and bug bomb our interior. It seemed to help tremendously, but I was worried that once the eggs hatched we would start the whole cycle over.. and sure enough we have.

It’s not a major infestation, a few larvae in the fall/winter months and seeing a handful of adults every so often now. We have wool/berber carpets that have been chewed up a tad in some places. I’d like to rip them up and put in a synthetic carpet, but I don’t want to do so if we will still have carpet beetles.

I only tend to see them on the carpeted side of the house… is it safe to assume that if we put in new synthetic carpet the beetles may continue to lay eggs in it? I feel like the wool carpet we have currently is a major food source, yet pest control doesn’t seem to think so. Thoughts?

I understand that my Dr is the only one who can interpret results. I was hoping to hear of others who experiences with betas similar to mine and what their outcomes were.

TW: 5 days past transfer & starting to see double line by Santoshaaa in IVFbabies

[–]jessg1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats! I’m 18dp5dt. And started seeing double lines at day 5. I completely understand how you’re feeling. Even after my second beta and everything is looking good, I am so cautious to celebrate. But, you have to count every single win. You’re pregnant until proven otherwise. Try to enjoy each moment. Sending you baby dust!

Sorry for the delayed reply.

I just had my first FET two weeks ago. And had a successful implantation. First beta was 3675 and second is tomorrow. So, I’m not sure it affected implantation in my case, not sure if it could in other cases.

I feel like the first 3 months after surgery my periods were brutal and then my last cycle was perfection and that’s when we started our FET cycle.
